I encouter a strange 'intereference Noise' when using the Phone or listening to noiseless Music/Videos from the build-in Speaker.
Does anyone else have this Problem ?
Some additional Info:
It makes no difference if i'm using the default CyanogenOS or any recent CyanogenMOD.

I have a problem with my gnex. After using a bluetooth headset, I lost almost all sounds.
What is not working
Media sounds like game sounds or music playback, Mic, Earpiece
Whats working
Alarms, Phonecalls through speakerphone.
Also I noticed that when I raise the media volume, I get the warning for destroying my ears that I used to got only through a headset.
What I tried
Flash stock rom down to 4.1, Flash a stock radio, Flash a lot of different kernels.
The only solution I got is through a 3rd party application (SoundAbout) that lets you choose how to redirect sound.

But this hasn't solve my problem, is just a workaround. I can not understand how is it possible to be a software problem but not be solved by an installation of a different rom+radio+kernel
Any comments ?
Hi,
I have very annoying issue in my Samsung Galaxy Note 2.
I'm running LiquidSmooth 3.1 (4.4.4 KitKat) ROM.
Cutting to the chase, when I'm recording video (through stock app or google camera from Play store) my phone records right channel audio very well (bottom microphone). Unfortunately audio recorded by top mic (left channel; camcorder mic) is very looooow on volume.
Example: I record a video, then I upload it on my computer, starts playing it - I can hear audio in right speaker, left one seems totally quiet. When turning volume up to the max, I can hear audio in left speaker but it's still very quiet.
I thought it's just video recording problem, but I tested it with Easy Voice Recorder Pro - when recording mono, everything is fine. When recording stereo - same issue as while recording videos.
Does anybody encountered same issue? Is it software issue, maybe whole ROM related? Or is it hardware issue?
Thanks

Well, not especially rom related, but all AOSP, CM etc. seem to have those sound issues atm. If it is important for you, consider a TW rom.

Okay, thanks for answer.
Is it happening to everyone or just some unlucky people?

It is very common issue for all users, as I said: atm=at the moment. Even phone calls can suffer from mic troubles.
One important thing: It might be solved already lately or in the next hours or days. Read in the threads
when i listen to music on my zenfone ,maximum volume is very low also music lags when using other applications,tried reflashing the firmware and other headphones but that didnt work any one got any idea?
two ways to get higher music volume on ZF2:
1) Turn off the equalizer in Music, that seems to help.
2) Get some different earphones, the Asus bundled items are significantly quieter than any others that I have tried. **Sorry, I see that you have tried others, but keep trying, I use Skullcandy and Jays, and both are much better**
With regards to the sound lag (its not just Musisc, it happens with calls and other apps too) when multi-tasking, Asus has been made aware of this (see the "Audio Issues" thread on Zentalk forum), and may, or may not be working on a fix....
Some people say that turning off System Sounds in settings reduces the sound lag, but I can't say that it has helped me. This is the single bug that most annoys me with this phone.
tried updating music fx plugin that came preinstalled to a newer version it improved the sound output a little bit,thanx by the way.
I think latest update (V2.17.40.12_20150515) has fixed this issue... Please update and check as many users are reporting that the bug has been fixed...

8. Improve image quality in detail.

I'm on 2.19.40.20 and still have this annoying issue both on normal audio and speaker, which is always too quiet for any hands-free or outdoor use
Is there any workaround ? (rooted phone)
Do you think that Viper4android or whatever could help to raise the sound levels ?
Disabled MaxxAudio

(I own an Asus Zenfone 2E so I don't know if this will work with the Zenfone 2) I disabled (AudioWizard/com.asus.maxxaudio) and rebooted. Tada! Headphone output is a crap ton louder! Hope this helps! I also deleted the MusicFX plugin. Don't know which one of those worked but one of them certainly did!
This is what I disabled using NoBloat(Remove spaces) http: //i.imgur. com/NO7dvls.jpg?1
Having your headphones suddenly become more quiet than usual, whether it’s on both earbuds or just one, happens quite more often than you’d think. Before we discuss how to fix the problem of your headphones being so quiet, it’s important that we understand why it happens in the first place.
Here are the most common reasons why headphones become quiet:
Issue With the Plug or Socket (For Wired Headphones)
Issue With Connectivity (For Wireless Headsets)
Device Settings
Issue With the Audio File
Issue With the Headset Itself
Issue With the Ear
Hi everyone, before anyone complains I did search for the problem everywhere and found nothing so I decided to post it here.
I'm going straight to the point since the problem has been driving me mad for a long time.
The problem arises when I use the ear speaker after that the headphones output is totally distorted but not before. I've always managed to do a reboot and everything is back to normal until I use the ear speaker again and the problem comes back. Something strange is that I only notice the distortion on any headphones or headset but never with a speaker such as a bluetooth speaker or via aux cable to my car.
I changed the firmware to various versions (stock and custom), changed the kernel, changed some build.prop settings, disabled the equalizer apps, changed the music player, disabled the Nuplayer and the problem keeps coming back.
Any ideas ?
Thank you for reading, hope someone can help me I'd be really thankful.
No one had this problem ?

Yes, i had it many times also. I think sound doesn't distorts. The reason for that is audio effects (or any other effects) stops working so sound becomes plain with no bass and other things. Some times force stop audio effects works but reboot always.

I disagree because tried freezing the audio effects app and keeps happening, also the same installing Viper4Android
Does anybody have any issues with the audio recording of camera? It's like trying to muffle background noises but end up recording everything in like a metallic sound... sound is really horrible. It's not the speakers because audio from videos and music is fine. It's just when the phone is recording audio. Audio while calling is also okay.
I'm on latest update of havoc (Q). The issue wasn't there when I was on android 7 (custom roms) problem came up after I updated to higher/later roms and it's not rom specific since I have been jumping from 1 rom to another.
Maybe it's a hardware problem already?
Thanks.
Additional info: it is not a hardware problem, i have tested to record a video with open camera app and when I change the audio source setting to "unprocessed" i get better audio quality but the volume is quite low... So maybe there is a bug with switching to different receivers, but instead it keeps using the noise cancelling microphone. Or its processing the audio to cancel the brackground noise and improving voice instead...
Pls help if anybody has a fix for android 10...
